Andean potato cultivars (Solanum tuberosum Group Andigena) represent a valuable source of genetic diversity of cultivated potato. Unraveling molecular mechanisms effecting iron and zinc accumulation in this gene pool would have tremendous potential to provide a means to help alleviate the prevale...

Identification and characterization of iron-related genes in Andean potato cultivars
Breeding efforts to develop high iron and zinc potatoes require a fast and inexpensive technique to evaluate mineral concentrations in large numbers of samples. In this study, we evaluated the feasibility of applying X-ray fluorescence spectrometry to estimate iron and zinc in freeze-dried and mi...

Potential and application of X-ray fluorescence spectrometry to estimate iron and zinc concentration in potato tubers
Samples from unprocessed and processed cooked tubers of the nine most abundant potato cultivars used to prepare the traditional freeze-dried food product, “chuño” in the central highlands of Peru were prepared and analyzed for their protein and mineral concentrations. The protein, iron, zinc and ...

Protein, iron, zinc and calcium concentrations of potatoes following traditional processing as “chuño”.
The determination of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) concentrations in 49 native Andean potato varieties revealed significant genotypic variation. Comparison of mineral concentrations of 37 of these germplasm accessions grown in two highland locations further revealed significant variation due to environ...

Iron and zinc concentration of native Andean potato cultivars from a human nutrition perspective.
The purpose of this study was to compare the in vitro iron availability from diverse iron biofortified International Potato Center (CIP) potato clones grown in the Peruvian Andes and, thereby, to provide key information to breeders seeking to increase bioavailable iron from potato.
